Chapter 110
On the way to the hospital, Pearl applied an ice bag to Lindsay's swollen hand. She looked so helpless at that moment
"I wonder who is hitting who now. I asked you to take revenge, yet you hurt yourself instead! Look at your hand, it is so swollen!
Mason was absolutely speechless upon hearing it. However, Lindsay chuckled instead.
"It is my first time hitting someone. I have no experience at all. The opposing forces are beyond my control. Pearl, do you know that that woman's face is ten times more wollen than my hand?" Pearl lifted her head and looked at Lindsay. Even though Lindsay's hand was swollen, she emitted an unprecedented vitality as if she was completely alive now...
In fact, Pearl was not the only one who noticed it. Mason noticed it too. It was like having someone walk out of the shadows to see the bright and warm sunshine shining on their figure. Pearl lifted her head and caressed Lindsay's head as she said, "Are you feeling happy now!"
Lindsay nodded her head vigorously,
Lindsay leaned against Pearl's shoulder as she held onto the ice bag in her hand. Then, she said sincerely, "Pearl, I know that it is not nice to hit someone. But, that woman caused my mother's death and snatched my father away from me. She had been bullying me for years. I hate her! I hate her so much" At first, I could not bring myself to do it. However, the moment I saw her face, all the images of how she locked me up in the basement and his me flashed in my mind...
I raised my hand and gave her a tight slap on her face, again and again, as I recalled all the bad experiences she had left in my memory. Upon hearing her insults became softer gradually, I actually felt an indescribable feeling. It was so relaxing and carefree Am I being too mean? Am I bad?"
Mason then smiled as he said. "As the saying goes, one who lies down with dogs must rise with fleas. Be a rascal among rascals! You have such a domineering cousin. It is absolutely normal for you to learn something bad."
Pearl lifted her head and stared at Mason as she said, "Shut up and scram! You talk too much
Mason made a zipping gesture at his mouth immediately upon hearing it, causing Lindsay to burst into a smile.
After some time, Pearl's calm voice sounded in the car, "How can you differentiate between the good and bad! If good people are destined to be bullied for the rest of their lives, I would rather be bad."
It was not about perfection but she sought to have a clear conscience and do whatever she wanted
Pearl went to the hospital in person. When she arrived, Henry was already in the ward.
Henry rushed to the hospital immediately upon receiving the news.
The actress who was beaten up was Yasmin Scott. She was the one who was almost raped by Errol the other day. Never did she expect that after escaping from the demon's den, she would fall into the hands of a vicious woman like Xyavion again.
No wonder Eren was so angry right now. Yasmin was being beaten up badly. She had blood covering her face and was a was covered with bruises and she suffered multiple soft tissue injuries too.
almost disfigured. Her body
"I am sorry. It is the company's responsibility to cause you to be in such a state. It is also my fault for failing to protect my staff as a boss."
Pearl apologized to Yasmin sincerely and said in a solemn tone, "The two bodyguards who hit you today were beaten up badly by Eren and the rest. They were almost crippled. There are two solutions now. For the first solution, you may choose to sue Errol and Xyavion. The company will let the lawyers protect your rights and interests. After the matter is resolved, you may terminate the contract at any time you want if you wish to leave Woolery Starry Media.
Yasmin took a glance at Henry and asked with difficulty. "If I were to sue them, would I win? Will they be arrested and locked up?"
Henry then told her the possible outcome, "What Errol had done to you has yet to cause any harm, I am afraid that the police would not file a case for it. As for Xyavion, even if there were surveillance cameras as evidence, she could still put the blame on the bodyguards as they were the ones who hit you. Furthermore, if she leads the public discussion and says that she is teaching you a lesson in seducing Errol in the first place, the public will not be kind to you as well
Although the reality was cruel, Henry had no choice but to tell her, "Your foundation is not stable yet As for the bodyguards who hit you, they will only be locked up for a few days. That's all!"
yet. Hence, the netizens will not speak up for you
If these words were said by someone else, Yasmin might not believe it. However, it was Henry who said an. He never lied. So, Yasmin had no choice but to believe in what be said.
11:30 AM
Yasmin put on a wry smile and said, "I am just an infamous celebrity with no backing. I don't have the ability to cause much trouble. So, what is the point of suing them! Miss Woolery, how about the second solution?
Pearl continued to say the second solution. "Rest well and I will get the best doctor to treat you and restore the appearance on your face. The company will bear all the surgery fees. As for Errol and Xyavion, you don't have to worry about anything. They will get their retributions one day. As for you, if you wish to terminate the contract or leave the industry, I can help you arrange it.
"If you are still willing to trust me and continue to stay in Woolery Starry Media, the company will give you the resources you need. Be it famous or not, it will all depend on your fate and the effort that you put in. But at least, you don't have to worry about any financial issues" Yasmin stared at Eren in a daze. Eren said hurriedly, "What are you waiting for? Miss Woolery is absolutely different from Mr. Woolery. She is definitely not a cunning person who wags one's tongue too freely like Mr. Woolery. She is offering you a great opportunity now. Hurry up and thank her. By the time you become famous, who the hell is Xyavion? If she dares to slap you again, we will slap her back twice or even beat her to death
Eren's words made Yasmin burst into laughter. But, she felt an acute pain when she laughed which made her gasp all of a sudden.
Pearl frowned as she stared fiercely at Eren.
Eren behaved himself all of a sudden and stopped talking. However, he kept winking at Yasmin to hint her not to let the opportunity slip through her hands. If she missed this opportunity, there would be no more chances for her! Yasmin was a pitiful child too. She knew that it was not easy to make a name for herself
Yasmin had been in the entertainment industry for many years. She had been working hard and endured for years in Woolery Starry Media too. How could she not cherish such a great opportunity! It was not easy for her to obtain it though. "Ms. Woolery, I shall choose the second solution"Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Pearl said in a straightforward manner. "Okay!"
Yasmin's family members were all overseas. Therefore, Pearl arranged an assistant for her and hired a nurse to take care of her too. When she could stand on her feet, Pearl would send her to Haningburgh for restorative surgery on her face. After everything was well arranged, Pearl and Henry walked out of the ward side by side. Henry took a glance at Pearl's expression and said. "Are you still angry about the photo incident?"
Pearl shook her head and said, "No
She looked into Henry's eyes and said. "Henry, you have been so busy with your filming schedules and yet, you still have to take care of Woolery Starry Media at the same time all these years. It must have been hard on you." Henry was stunned. He smiled gently and caressed Pearl's head as he said, "Why did you say that all of a sudden?"
"In the past few years, I have been too wilful. I threw all the burdens that our parents left me to you.
Pearl lowered her head and laughed at herself as she said, "Indeed, there is a price to pay for being wilful. Look at what Ralph and Errol had done to Woolery Group! It is partially my fault too
'Don't be too hard on yourself
Henry knew what was in Pearl's mind. Upon hearing what she said, Henry felt heartbroken too. "Aren't you b though."
Pearl lifted her head. Fragility and guilt faded from her eyes instantly. On the
Pearl smiled as she said. "You are right! I am back now!"
It was time for her to take the responsibility back.
you back right now? It is still not too late
the contrary, her eyes were filled with firmness and determination.
She was already impatient and had no intention of playing along with Ralph and Errol anymore. She had paid the price for her wilfulness for the past there years. Now, it was time for Ralph and Errol to pay the price for the sins they had committed It was time for Pearl to harvest what she had cast earlier on
